CORROSION FUNDAMENTALS AND MATERIALS PROPERTIES

THE THEORY OF CORROSION AND A NUMBER OF THE MORE IMPORTANT FORMS OF CORROSION, PARTICULARLY THOSE MOST LIKELY TO BE FOUND ASSOCIATED WITH HIGHWAY STRUCTURES AND EQUIPMENT, ARE DISCUSSED. ALSO, INFORMATION OF THE PROPERTIES OF VARIOUS FERROUS AND NON-FERROUS ALLOYS AND THEIR BEHAVIOR UNDER DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENTS IS PRESENTED. CORROSION DATA FOR INDUSTRIAL AND MARINE ATMOSPHERE EXPOSURES ARE PRESENTED TO SHOW THE EFFECT ON CORROSION RESISTANCE OF MINOR ALLOY ADDITIONS IN STEEL. INFORMATION ALSO IS PRESENTED TO SHOW THE DEGREE TO WHICH THIS BETTER RESISTANCE OF LOW ALLOY STEEL WILL IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE OF PROTECTIVE COATINGS. /AUTHOR/
